The District of Columbia State Athletic Association (DCSAA), is the association that oversees post-season high school sporting contests in Washington, D.C. DCSAA is made up of public schools from the DCIAA, DC private schools from various conferences such as the WCAC and the MAC, and DC charter schools. Since the athletic talent in DC is spread out amongst various different leagues, the DCSAA aims to provide a medium for which the best schools, regardless of type, can compete under unified rules. That way, there can be a true city champion, rather than a public school champion and private school champions.

The DCSAA sponsors championships in football, basketball, soccer, cross country, cheerleading, baseball, indoor track, outdoor track, softball, golf, lacrosse, tennis, wrestling, swimming, chess, ultimate frisbee and volleyball.
